Sweet, I will book mark this. I want to go ahead and put my Win 7 pro 64, but I wonder if my school apps will still work. Once I get me some DL media, Il be burning my 360 games and finishing up Wii Games and then I can go ahead and do the install.

The only problem I have run into yet and it may just be me or I dont have something set right is I cant get it to save passwords for sites using firefox never had any problems with xp or vista.

Had that issue, but it turned out to be the privacy settings in FF. Adjusted and its all good now.

I have been having an odd problem. Randomly when I right click Windows Explorer crashes and has to restart. If I keep right clicking it will crash every time for a few minutes, then after sitting for 10 or so mins right clicking works as normal. Tried some fixes I found googling the issue, but nothing has gotten rid of it permanently. Something to do with context menus..

The problem isn't Windows 7, the problem is with you using Internet Explorer lol. What are you thinking?

You obviously misread my post. I already mentioned that I use FF when I addressed the other posters comments about saved passwords. Windows Explorer crashing does not mean Internet Explorer crashing, thanks.

Oh sorry, I thought you meant IE, wasn't trying to be an ass either, just a smart ass . That is a serious issue, has it always been doing this, or did it develop with time?

Well I tried the upgrade option and it rendered my system inoperable!:shadedshu
Doesn't surprise me at all...time to do a clean install when i can find time.I just wanted to see if it actually works lol not even close a total failure!

The failed updates could be from several reasons, including improper date and time set (yes I know it sounds stupid, but its true). Also, I had problems with the upgrade of 7, clean install, and no problems with it...yet.
